Official Predict How Many People Enter WSOP ME Thread

[Zofox]

Is there a place online that has an reasonably updated count of the number of entries?

And I'm guessing that most of the online sites will hit this massively since they'll hold their money till the last minute.....

The numbers tripled from 2003 to 2004 (839 -> 2,576) and they doubled from 04 to 05 (5,691) so I expect an increase of about 50% --> 8,536 is my number

Looks like I was close as CP reports the official number at 8,532 - but I'm sure even that number will be beaten after Day 4 is over. As far as I know they still allow sign-ups for day 2,3 and 4

while registering for the ME last night at around 2am, the cashier told me they were already WELL over the 8k man mark and that they should have close to 12-13k entries!

now, this wasnt confirmed by any others, but i also dont know how he would screw up the figures that badly if he was indeed incorrect.

so just a rumor for now, but sick if true.

8673 Sounds about right to me. I read somewhere Cardplayer was predicting somewhere in the neigborhood of 8500

Exactly 8,717, because that number sounds right.
